The light at the end of the tunnel

The candle flickers into darkness
The black engulfs it all
Yet another string cut
Yet another star in the sky.

The drums roll into silence
The final chord is struck
No cheers nor applause follow
Nothing but a promise,
a promise, of tomorrow.

Was it time to lose the magic?
Was it time to extinguish the faith?
Was it enough to kill the memories?
Was it time to kill the pain?
